First try at using a Enamel Cast Iron Bread Oven - 'tight-sealing lid helps trap steam, simulating the conditions of professional bread ovens'. Simple white bread - the result is just what I was hoping for. Preheated the cloche in the oven while the shaped loaf was rising. Removed from oven to load the dough. Then cooked 25 minutes, removed lid to brown for 10 minutes.

Absolutely thrilled with this bread oven. Extremely well made, heavy duty and effective! Made my first loaf of rustic bread and was very pleased with results. I made a half recipe smaller loaf as a test and I will definitely be making full loaves going forward. Please note - the instructions say not to use dry - I lightly coated inside of bottom only with olive oil - did not impact my bread at all. And, the price cannot be beat!

Perfect for making bread.

I was a little unsure about this product. I am new to bread making and I was worried it would burn the bread but i was very impressed. It was an even cook the bottom didnt burn. It was a little tough to cut on bottom when cutting but over-all i am glad i purchased this product. I also used the bottom portion to cook meal with its a nice size pan.

It’s amazing! The perfect bread oven! When I bake sourdough, I preheat it for 15–20 minutes, and the bread is fully baked in just 25 minutes. I leave it covered, then uncover it for the last 5 minutes to get a beautiful dark golden color. I’m so happy I found this at Sam’s Club for such a reasonable price!

Beautiful dark burgandy color. Not as heavy as my regular cast iron which makes it easier on my back since my oven is so low to the floor. Bakes great sourdough.

First attempt, came out great! I’m impressed with the results.

I have several different bread ovens. This is my favorite. I have the cranberry and it is so easy to clean. I have never have had an enamel pan that doesn't stain. This is that pan no stains yet, love it. I haven't had to do the hard elbow wrenching scrub and have been using mine for a year or more and several times a week. I do use a silicone mat in bottom to prevent over browning. I bake all kinds of sour dough, Jalapeno/cheddar, black chantrelle/smokey gouda, strawberry/cream cheese, any thing my customers want.

This is the bomb! My husband purchased this for me and we love the bread that came out of it! I hope they will eventually bring out a loaf oven!

Not a Le-creuset quality, enamel is chipping at bottom of edge of lid already, heavy construction, poor finish.
